Philip de László: Princess Ruspoli, Duchess de Gramont

Philip Alexius de László (Anglo-Hungarian, 1869-1937) Portrait of Princess Ruspoli, Duchess de Gramont (1888-1976), signed, inscribed and dated ‘de Laszlo/Paris 1922.XI.’ (lower right), oil on board 32¼ x 26 in. (82 x 66 cm.), Image Source: Christie’s

For this portrait, de László has employed unusual shades of green and purple not often seen in his palette. This, and the swathe of material draped about her head, may be said to reflect the original tastes of his sitter, well known as a fashion icon, whose olive skinned beauty well suited these colours.
